State Rep. Mauree Gingrich, R-Palmyra, has survived a challenge to her nominating petitions and will stay on the ballot for the April 22 Republican primary.

Pennsylvania Supreme Court has dismissed an appeal from Russ Diamond, one of Gingrich's two primary opponents, alleging at least 12 names on petitions Gingrich claimed to have circulated herself were invalid, and some of them forged.

The ruling sends the three-way race to the voters. Besides Diamond, an Annville businessman who helped lead grass-roots reaction to the 2005 legislative pay raise, Gingrich is challenged in the GOP primary by Bruce Kreider, a documentary producer from North Cornwall Township.
